More InformationReview of The Life of Henry Moore (See 0000182). His life was entirely successful without being remotely interesting." Equates Moore his art and this biography with the Victorian tradition. "The High Victorians were fossilized by their biographers and by those special rooms at the Tate... It took fifty years to shake off their executors and to see them for ourselves. This Life of Henry Moore is a worrying sign that the same thing may be happening to him.""
